I see James Watson has died.

What did Watson discover?

Rosalind Franklin's lab notes.

Only we spell it 'S-T-E-A-L' these days.

i was really skeptical that this was the case at the beginning, but i'm not sure what other explanation makes sense at this point

johnson is also fucking terrified of what's in these files and is willing to keep the house on permanent vacation to prevent their disclosure, and that's becoming obvious to even the most checked-out median voter

Speaker Johnson is officially keeping the House in recess again next week. This will be the eighth consecutive week the House has been out of session. The chamber hasn't met since Sept. 19. Adelita Grijalva, who was elected on Sept. 23, has not been sworn in.

Two ways to view this:

1. This is the future you wanted, PNAC guy

2. Even the PNAC guy is saying abolish ICE/CBP

You fucking people will let anyone off the hook for their violent hateful beliefs and all they have to do is say shiny words you like

You’re all a bunch of Nazi tattoo forgiving, Jewish space lasers forgetting gullible marks getting played for fools

As a Jew I suggest you all go fuck yourselves.

MTG seems to be saying all the right things lately. I can't decide if she's sincere & turning over a new leaf or if she's trying to tone down her rhetoric for a future gubernatorial run. Only time will tell.

New guidance from USDA says they will administer full SNAP benefits.

However, less than 45 minutes ago, the Attorney General tweeted about asking for a stay on the order forcing full benefits.

Seems weird to send this guidance if they’re hoping for a stay by 4pm.

SCHUMER is on the floor now making this offer to end the shutdown:

Clean CR
Bipartisan "minibus" of approps bills
1-year ACA funding extension
Bipartisan cmte to negotiate on health care

"This is a reasonable offer that reopens the government, deals with health care affordability."

Those AI videos of black people having tantrums over food stamps are way more illuminating that whatever the fuck Johnson is saying to the press, it's the WW2 "bomb the civilians into revolt against their government" concept as politics.

people made at recon haven't read enough books to understand that intentionally and publicly cutting off the food supply—especially primarily for the sake of some kind of political gain—to the working poor has never happened before and is easily the most baffling move in the history of civilization
